Twitter Tip of The Day Tweet Destinations
Everyone on Twitter wants people to do or learn something or pay some attention. Fine if you structure it effectively.
1. You care about something but not about selling anything. Best Practice (BP): Point your updates to an authority site. (eg: Human Rights Watch) Also OK: A comment that includes keywords for Twitter Search. (I support the public health care option)
2. Sell a service (coaching, consulting, a product). BP: A personal site that helps and informs, only secondarily “selling”. WORST: Sales letters that read like TV infomercials.
3. My best Tweet destination: A blog. Can also be a personal site. If you update frequently you can point to it in your tweets. You can mix blog urls with the addresses of related materials around the web. The mixture is best of all.
The main thing: Have a working destination for your tweets. Include destination urls in replies.
